Wimbledon Museum

It’s no V&A, but the small, volunteer-run Wimbledon Museum is packed full of local history worth knowing (not to be confused with the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum). Among its collection, there’s an assemblage of Suffragette artefacts – which includes the ‘Holloway Brooch’ awarded to local Rose Yates after she was released from Holloway Prison – some slightly freaky old toys, 18th-century artwork depicting the area and Wimbledon FC memorabilia.
